RANGER IV..
The first American lunar probe was Pioneer 4, launched on March 3, 1959. Its main goal was to achieve a close flyby of the Moon, providing valuable data on radiation in space and the lunar environment. Pioneer 4 successfully passed within 37,600 miles (60,500 kilometers) of the Moon, making it the first U.S. spacecraft to escape Earth's gravity and travel to another celestial body.
The first space probe was called Luna 1, launched by the Soviet Union in 1959. It was the first spacecraft to reach the vicinity of the Moon, though it did not achieve a lunar orbit.
The first American probe to strike the Moon's surface was the Ranger 4 spacecraft in 1962. Ranger 4 was part of the Ranger program, which aimed to capture close-up images of the Moon's surface for scientific study.
The lunar probe made a successful landing.The lunar eclipse was spectacular.
The first probe mission to the Moon was the Soviet Union's Luna 2, which successfully impacted the lunar surface on September 14, 1959. This marked the first time a man-made object reached the Moon.

Yes. It is correct to say that viking was a name of a lunar probe.
Yes. It is correct to say that Pioneer was a name for a lunar Probe.
A lunar space probe are robot machine that is send to the outer space to gather information about the moon.
Lunar probe
The first space probe was called Luna 1, launched by the Soviet Union in 1959. It was the first spacecraft to reach the vicinity of the Moon, though it did not achieve a lunar orbit.
The types of Lunar probes are Soviet Union, Ranger and Surveyor
The first attempted launch of a lunar probe was Pioneer 0 (USA), which launched Aug 17, 1958, however, the booster exploded at 16km, never leaving Earth's atmosphere. The first successful lunar impact was Luna 2 (USSR) which launched July 18, 1959 and was designed to crash into the moon's surface. The fist successful soft laning on the moon was Luna 9 (USSR) which launched on January 31,1966 The first probe to go into lunar orbit was Luna 10 (USSR) which launched March 31, 1966
China's first lunar probe landed on the moon in a controlled collision, this was the first phase of that nation's three-stage moon mission. The second stage involved sending a second probe to practice soft landings. The mission will culminate with the launch and landing of a rover on the moon to collect mineral samples in 2012. The probe -- Chang'e-1, named after a legendary moon goddess -- launched into space on October 24, 2007.
Ranger 4
The first American probe to strike the Moon's surface was the Ranger 4 spacecraft in 1962. Ranger 4 was part of the Ranger program, which aimed to capture close-up images of the Moon's surface for scientific study.
